The House on Saturday passed a nearly $95 billion foreign-aid package, including humanitarian assistance for Gaza and other war zones, after months of fighting in Congress over the aid for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan.

In February, House Speaker Mike Johnson rejected a Senate-passed foreign-aid package, promising a more conservative version. 

The legislation ultimately put forth preserved a significant portion of the initial Senate legislation but adds on a number of Republican national-security priorities, including new sanctions on Iran, efforts to reduce the impact of the aid package on deficit spending, and a potential ban on TikTok.
